I'm wondering if this is too dark for a digital?

I like it, but yes, it is a bit dark for my personal taste. There's some interesting detail in those flowers that gets lost in the dark.

being to dark is not the prob you need more hightlights

play with the jug and lid then see about pecking at the flowers-- I love dark stuff

i think its lovely the flowers do seem a tad too dark, maybe some highlights will really make them pop?

Thank you skinny. I would take a bow deep from the waist—but at my age I may never straighten up .. hehe

Personally I think it is wonderful just how it is. The slight blurred shine on the mug gives it a smooth slick feel. The flowers are just right to go with the mug. The only thing I would change,.. If I would change anything.. would be to darken the background & lighten the foreground just a bit.
